Finally, this much awaited follow-up to Scott Pilgrim Volume 1: Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life (which is still available, by the way) is on the Copacetic shelves. O'Malley is a natural when it comes to creating comics -- the panels, pages and characterization just flow in a style that lies at a comfortable half-way point between high-energy manga simplicity and American-indy chiaroscuro. Weighing in at 200 pages of fun it's sure to be worth the wait!
It's here: the all new, full color, hardcover graphic novel from Scott Pilgrim creator, Bryan Lee O'Malley. As might be expected, this one features characters a bit older than those found in the Scott Pilgrim, allowing for the aging of the original demographic of readers of that amazingly popular series (the indicia of our latest reorder of the first volume showed it to be the 30th printing!). Seconds centers on the character of Katie, a 29-year old chef and would be restauranteur. A current fling, an Ex-boyfriend, a boss, a partner, and batch of co-workers round out the cast. Oh yeah – and a house spirit with the power to grant the wish of a second chance to do things over. This dash of fantasy spices up the already lively goings on. And, while O'Malley currently makes his home in Los Angeles, the setting of Seconds is clearly his native Canada. An entertaining and fun read that is sure to enjoyed by the first generation of Scott Pilgrim fans, and is likely to click with anyone looking for a little magic in graphic novel form...
FROM THE ARCHIVES:

ONE set only – GONE!
